Ask ABC: What are the differences between NIE electronic and print editions?

The only difference between the service of electronic editions and print editions for NIE is the delivery format—online versus print.

In any NIE scenario, the following must occur:

  • Teachers must place an order for the number of copies they wish to receive for the students in their classrooms and the dates they wish the copies to be delivered.
  • If the copies are sponsored, the teacher must sign an affidavit attesting to the number of copies actually received for each date (or range of dates) and how they were used in the classroom as part of the curriculum.

For electronic editions, the following requirements are necessary:

  • Teachers must place an order for the number of “licenses” they wish to receive for the students and the dates they wish to access the electronic editions.
  • The publication will issue user names and passwords to the teacher to gain access to the electronic edition. (The same user name and password set may be used for multiple licenses in the same classroom.)
  • If the copies are sponsored, the teacher must sign an affidavit attesting to the number of licenses ordered, the dates they desire access to the electronic editions, that the electronic editions were used in the classroom as part of the curriculum, and the number of students in the classroom.

Here’s an example of an NIE affidavit for electronic editions:

Next month we’ll explore how electronic versions for registered college-student copies are tracked.

For additional questions about the NIE print or electronic versions, please contact your Publisher Relations manager.
